Features: The number of human races on Earth will determine the diversity of living styles; the number of regions on Earth will shape the variety and uniqueness of dwellings. Humans are the most intelligent creatures on Earth, and this original meaning emphasizes that only humans possess civilized living spaces, not merely for shelter from wind and rain. This is an involuntary reflection after reviewing this book—not to say that it summarizes living styles around the world, quite the contrary. It authentically and purely tells the story of the interior style of one race and one region—Chinese style. At first glance, this seemingly singular style, through its construction, materials, craftsmanship, art, needlework, and even decorations, is deeply nourished by thousands of years of Chinese civilization, appearing so magnificent and rich in heritage. It feels as though the vitality of time and space is being sustained here; many traditional techniques and patterns, when expressed today, seem natural, effortless, and perfectly fitting. This leads to the thought that different regions and communities around the world, with their unique living styles, adapt to varying natural, cultural, religious, and economic conditions, forming distinctive and captivating living spaces. In fact, these are all works of art worth admiring. This book describes the interior spaces created by the ancient civilization of China, a vast country, and its people living there.
